Not me, that is zero's car, he is on KW V3's. I'm just guessing on how low he is, but it doesn't look like he is rubbing.

Default yeah...

Got my Works/Avant gard wheels this week and ordered RE11s 265s and 305s. I realize from you folks there may be a bit more plowing due to the stagger but when I finally get to Road Atlanta I don't intend to push the limits. Will post pics when mounted. and yea, I know....LOOOOWER but I'll live with the tire/fender gap. lol

So 275/35/19 will not rub in the front with a 9.5 inch wide wheel?

Just got notified that my Work Gnosis GS2 wheels have arrived in the US. I have a 2012 Nismo and here are the wheel offsets that I ordered:

19X9.5 +20 Front (R disk)
19X11 +14 Rear (O disk)

I am debating on whether to go with 305 in the rear or 325 as well as 265 or 275 in the front. Targeting Pilot Super Sports 35 front, 30 rear. This setup will be mostly for show, and this is not a daily driver. And I am lowered with Eibach pro springs, but will be installing true coilovers real soon. Like next month. So - in the end I don't want to have to do any crazy stuff with camber for the show wheels that will effect me negatively when I take the car to the track and change the wheels.

Next:
I want to take my stock Nismo wheels and put some good track tires on (possibly RE11's) and I am pretty sure I will be going with 265/35 front and 305/30 in the rear.

Any experienced advice on the top would be appreciated.

I have SPL camber arms right now.....
Check that.... Rear camber arms only.... So I should be good with the 265/305 setup then right?
